My Top Posts of 2010 on SEO, PR and Social Media for News and Sports

Another year has passed and that means it is time for marketing blogs to do their obligatory top posts of the year roundups. Despite the cliché I like reading them because it is a good way to discover things I may have missed during the year. And on my own blog I’m certainly curious to know which posts brought in the most traffic this year.

The press release buzzwords post is the most popular post I have ever done by any measure. That one really took on a life of its own and it was fun to be a part of it. Six months later I am still getting engagement on it every now and then.

I thought it was interesting that three of my top 10 were related to sports and social media because I write about that only occasionally as a side interest. I guess I should step that up a little next year.

The iPad quotes post is just a simple roundup of thoughts from around the industry that barely got noticed on Twitter but it continues to bring in natural search visitors each month.

I’d like to thank everyone who has engaged with my blog in some way this year be it a comment, link, tweet, Facebook like, LinkedIn or Google Reader share or just stopping by to read a post.

While I write this blog in my spare time for my own enjoyment it has become a valuable part of what I do professionally. So I am grateful for the connections I have made through it and I appreciate the positive feedback I’ve received.
